Russian Suspends Power Flows To Finland Over Lack Of Payment

Daily Mail: Russia CUTS electricity to Finland: Moscow-run state energy company says it will stop supplying Helsinki tomorrow over 'payment issues' amid tensions over NATO 

* RAO Nordic has said it will suspend its electricity import to Finland from May 14 

* The supplier firm is a subsidiary of Russian state energy holding Inter RAO 

* This is due to RAO Nordic not being able to pay for imported electricity, it said 

* Blamed suspension on not having received payments for electricity sold in May 

Finland was preparing for Russia to cut off electricity supplies early today due to its failure to pay the provider. 

Russian state-owned power firm Inter RAO will stop exports because it has not been paid for energy sold via the pan-European exchange Nord Pool since May 6. 

No reason was given for the non-payment. 

It comes as Finland prepares for Moscow to cut gas supplies in retaliation for the country making moves to join Nato.
